Can they do this?

I listed some brand new wraps (reusable nappies) on ebay, clearly stating they had been pre-washed, just had an email from the buyer saying he doesnt think there new and if i dont give him 'adequate compensation' hel give me negative feedback! I dont know what to do, they where brand new, i washed them ready for lo and never used them, how the hell am i meant to prove that?

Hmmmm I'm not sure what you can do hun? If he's being difficult you could always just ask him to send them back and give him a refund. Theres no way you can prove they hav'nt been used is there?I'd rather do that than get negative feedback from him. I don't think sellers can give buyers negative feedback anymore so it makes it difficult for you

Hmmm, tough one! I would tell him to send them back (at his own expense) and refund him what he paid you, and leave it at that. Although i would probably mention that they had been opened and washed, as was clearly stated on the listing, and that if he's not happy then you're very sorry but you won't be "compensating". The way thats worded makes it sound like he thinks you should reimburse him and then give extra on top for his inconvenience or something! Some ebayers are just plain cheeky!!! xxxx

I think he is try to pull a fast one - don't be scared of neg fb threat...I always look at both fb's if I see a neg & I can tell when someone has just been nasty or trying to pull a fast one & have bought successfully from people with neg fb with no probs.

Tell him items as described & as per listings & that you shall report him to eBay/Paypal as a rogue buyer should he persist in trying to haggle money back! You are a mummy selling off your nolonger needed goods & not a business & items are sold as seen. I have had someone bid on a item then try & haggle postage down...I stuck to my guns as listing was very clear on prices & I only send recorded signed for (which was why it was dearer). Don't let him bully you!

It's people like him that ruin eBay! (& the Malaysian con artists who robbed me of a few quid - hence why I only send 'signed for' now!)xxx
